General Discussion / Tire rub
« on: April 10, 2023, 01:10:57 AM »
Just finishing up on the restoration of my 69 Z, I have a tire rub on the right rear side , also have wheels with  generous offset as well as oversized tires 235-60-15 . wanted to see if anyone has used a Eastwood Fender Roller tool or another brand, I just need to bend the lip up a small amount to gain some clearance. Like to hear the comments on your experience if you have used one of these tools.

« on: July 13, 2022, 12:48:16 AM »
Looking for good recommendation for a complete exhaust system for a 1969 z-28 camaro, was looking at the 89021 Thrush Turbo system, but a lot of negative comments on how it fits, any experience with this system. Or if you purchased an another brand and are pleased with it chime in, don't want to break the bank, thanks.

General Discussion / Green lens on heater control
« on: November 17, 2021, 09:08:04 PM »
Was working on the heater control when a little green strip fell out , its about 2" long by 1/2" wide, and I can't see where it goes. I assume it gives a green tint to the control where the light are on. Where does it go and what keeps it in there. HELP.

General Discussion / kick panel
« on: December 30, 2020, 03:45:37 PM »
Looking at my kick panel the cotton pad glued to the back side , is that for noise or  thermal insulation? Was thinking of using some carpet padding as mine is in poor shape. Also has anyone replaced the gasket in the flapper doors, tried a search but nothing came up.they pop right out ,finding the rubber gasket might be hard.

General Discussion / Junior Johson
« on: December 21, 2019, 01:44:01 AM »
Just read where Junior Johnson passed away today, age 88. Sad to see the legends leave us. He was a driver ,team owner,had a book written about his exploits, which was made into a movie, The Last American Hero.Describes him to a tee. I think he took the big block Chevy AKA the mystery motor and put it on the pole ay Daytona 10 miles an hour over the other cars. would have liked to have met him.
